MUNICH–(BUSINESS
WIRE)–At the upcoming SCMR meeting in Orlando Florida at February 2nd -5th
TomTec introduces its 2D Cardiac Performance Analysis© MR software product*.
The tool to quantify myocardial function and deformation based on regular
cardiac MRI cine imaging.
2D Cardiac Performance Analysis© MR allows a cardiologist to
study the function of the heart muscle quickly and easily. Quantification of
displacement, velocity and strain in individual muscle segments helps to assess
e.g. hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or dyssynchrony of ventricles.
2D Cardiac Performance Analysis© MR is a feature tracking
based analysis tool which supports 2D data from various cMR systems. It
analyzes myocardial deformation in standard MR cine sequences and does not
require specific acquisition modes like tagged imaging. Thus already existing
patient data can be used for follow-up comparisons.
“Based on its modern feature tracking algorithm 2D Cardiac
Performance Analysis© MR offers a robust and time saving analysis of myocardial
deformation and therefore meets all the conditions to be implemented in a
clinical setting” says Rolf Baumann TomTecs Vice President of Clinical
Products and Innovations.
